What's the deal with screens at UFC events? I'll be at ufc178. I got decent seats but it's still never as good as the screens. I've been front row at mma events before and I still preferred watching the video feed.

Wait, what's the question exactly?Comment -
I hear the best screen is available in your living roomComment -
Seriously, I don't understand, if you're going to just watch it on the screens, why not see it in a movie theatre or at a sports bar? Why pay hundreds of dollars to be in a room with a bunch of douchebags?
Never been to an MMA show, but it sounds absolutely awful to me. Maybe if you were front row. Otherwise I'd imagine its like watching a schoolyard fight from the other side of the fence from halfway across the football field.Comment -
I'm well aware that the best seat in the house is at home. But hey... I'm in Vegas and it's a great card. The crowd action should be exciting.
My question is: at UFC events are they streaming the fights on a big screen in the arena so people can see better?Comment -
yes there are a few big screens. u might have trouble getting a gd connection for live bettingComment -
a guy from my university who i never really liked came along to the Nottingham event that I went to a couple years ago (Hardy vs Sadollah) and he was that guy! He is the worlds biggest attention seeker. So of course he was constantly yelling "Punch him in his tit" and "Grab his boobs".
Was also that event when John Maguire's brother Tommy came and sat next to us and obviously this lad who came knew nothing about MMA so had no idea who he was. So during the Hathaway/Maguire fight which was a stinker he starts hurling abuse. Almost led to us getting pummelled by Maguire and his gypsy mates!

Was also tht event when gunnar nelson came up and sat near us next to his mrs. Again my buddies have no idea who he is or what his personality is like (as we all know he is an ice cold killer who doesnt joke around much). Anyway we get a photo with him and one of the lads thinks it would be hilarious to squeeze gunnar's ass while the photo is being taken. Safe to say he wasnt impressed in the slightest but then he always looks like tht so his reaction wasnt as extreme as you might expect
Probably lucky it was him as he's so composed and cool and collected tht he didnt react.
Basically i'm summing up what nunya is talking about.Last edited by Vaughany; 08-07-14, 07:34 AM.Comment -
My friends always ask me if I'm going to UFC Maine or UFC foxwoods.. But ya once you've been to a few the thrill is gone. I always end up watching the screen, even with good seats. Easier to live bet from home too.Comment -
Thats exactly what I expect from Clay.

Yes, there are 4 screens at the MGM Grand. They are all positioned in the corners. 2 screens are larger, 2 are basically unwatchable depending on where you are sitting. Nothing hanging over the cage like a hockey or basketball arena. If you're on the floor, you're looking up and through the cage. Best seats are the lower level raised seats, as low as possible and near the middle. Enjoy the fights.
